Is it possible for someone to post more photos showing the interior view?
I would like to see how well the colors mesh together.

Thanks for the pics, Is that Carbon Fiber?!?!
Packages and options vary from country to country. Please fill out your profile with your location so we know how best to answer your questions. For now, I'll assume you're in the US...

The pic you posted looks like Auburn to me. BMW Individual is very tough to get in the US. BMW NA does not officially offer it in the US. Some E46 owners have been to get BMW Indivdual colors, but no E60 has been delivered in the US (to my knowledge) with an Individual color yet. Also, BMW Individual is a custom order with a sizable deposit, so you will not see it for sale in a dealer's lot (unless the buyer backs out under extreme circumstances). FYI, a BMW Individual paint color costs around $2k, Individual interior is probably also at least $2k.

Standard headliner is grey in the US. Anthracite (black) headliner is a priority 1 option. P1 is basically a 'secret' option that is also a special order. You must commit to the car to be able to order a P1 option, so it is also unlikely that you will find Anthracite headliner on a car for sale at your dealer's lot.

The pic that Tommy posted in not carbon fiber, it is Alu Cube. Alu Cube is not availabe in the US.

Here are some pics of my Auburn:

FYI you may want to be aware that Auburn is the only 2 tone interior available in the US. (All BMW Individual interiors are 2 tone). That means that only the leather surfaces (seat fronts, side airbag covers on the doors) are in Auburn and the rest of the interior is black (dash, center console, seat backs). With all 3 other US interior colors, both leather and dash are the same color.
